I also like the fact that it has powerful functionalities built in. Has kittens (hints is the best, diff is also very nice).It’s fast! (actually, I read somewhere than faster than alacritty).I started using kitty then I moved to alacritty and finally back again to kitty. ![]() But I think that for people that work a lot over ssh, tmux can be a great tool. And that’s the only thing I use it for right now, but I’d be glad to write a script to open new terminals already ssh’d. The only real benefit of tmux that I see for me is multiplexing a ssh connection instead of sshing from many terminals. Because kakoune works in daemon mode, if I mistakenly close my terminal I can reconnect to the session. I can tile windows in my wm and I can save sessions with other daemons. At work on WSL I use tmux for instance.Īlacritty is very simple to configure, otherwise I don’t think it’s noticeably different to another terminal. However I prefer tmux since it is more portable. With Kakoune my window manager does everything so I use one set of keybindings.įor this reason I don’t use Kitty but if I was in an environment without a nice display manager I might, simply because it has so many great features. To focus on the right window in Vim + tmux (which is a combo I have seen plenty) I might have to switch focus from browser to tmux, then to a different tmux pane, then to a different vim split. If I use kitty or tmux it just adds another layer I have to get through. ![]() If I use my window manager only then I use the same keybindings to navigate between workspaces, windows and tabs for all my applications (except the browser unfortunately). I’m a big believer in the idea of having one tool do one thing well. In my personal setup I just use urxvt and a tiling window manager.
